After you have finished your studies, you can send in your application for an academic degree.

Degree

When you have finished your studies and all results are registered in Ladok, you can apply for your degree certificate.
All exam certificates are issued in Swedish and English in one and the same document.
The exam certificate also includes the Diploma Supplement, which describes the programme in English.

What do I do?

After completing your studies, you can apply for both an academic qualification (Bachelor’s, Master’s 60 credits or Master’s 120 credits) and a professional qualification. You do this by filling in the form "Application for degree certificate". You must obtain your degree certificate from the University before you can apply for professional registration at the Swedish National Board of Health and Welfare.

If you want to include freestanding courses and/or courses from other higher education institutions in your academic qualification, you must fill in the form “List of qualifications”.
